Bari man accused of fake insurance sales

(ANSA) - Bari, September 1 - A 62-year-old man was arrested Monday for insurance fraud after police said they found his home had become a printing shop, churning out false auto insurance policies.
    Giovanni Farinola, a former insurance agent, is accused of selling fake insurance policies to customers who said they paid premiums but learned they were not actually covered.
    Another 17 people are being investigated by finance police on related allegations of faking auto accidents to collect as much as 120,000 euros in insurance. Two orthopedic surgeons have also been implicated.
